The cabinet isn’t helping either

That’s why I mentioned it would be better to photograph the bass in front of a neutral background. The conflicting wood grains in the floor beneath it and book shelf behind it are unnecessarily distracting.

I had to see what it would look like.

Guitar harp. No clue what to do with this thing or how to play it. I wish it was electric so I could run it through some chorus and delay.

Muriel Anderson is a tiny guitarist with massive talent and musicality. I had the great good fortune to interview her at the NAMM Show many years ago. A truly lovely lady and an astounding world-class musician.

In this video, she provides info on the origin, context of the harp guitar, and the concept and design of her uniquely scaled custom harp guitar. She is tiny, after all :joy:

You HAD to do it, didn’t you?! :face_vomiting:

That’s why we can’t have nice things.

So few things that get posted here are unanimously agreed they belong, but this definitely is one of them.
